Welcome to Our Lab!

The Behavioral Addictions Lab is hosted within the Department of Psychology at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas.

Mission Statement

The Behavioral Addictions Lab conducts research focused on the study of: Psychopathology, Sexual Trauma, Substance Use Disorders, Problem Gambling, and Compulsive Sexual Behavior Disorder.

We are particularly interested in the study of non-substance, rather behavioral disorders, with much of our recent work focused on Gambling Disorder, Sexual Behavior, and Internet Gaming Disorder.

This is a clinically-oriented research lab focused on improving screening and treatments of behavioral addictions among vulnerable groups. The lab is also conducting research within college students, U.S. Veterans, and community members.
